Tarz El Fassi — the embroidery tradition of Fez — is one of the most refined needlework practices in North Africa. This pillow carries it with restraint: a warm beige ground divided by a hand-stitched charcoal Fassi band, the embroidery precise and unhurried, four corner tassels marking each edge. The result is a piece that feels as much like an heirloom object as a decorative cushion.
Provenance
Each TIGEMI piece is individually sourced and documented for its texture, weaving character, and handmade irregularities. Crafted on traditional looms by artisan women in Morocco, no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
Fassi linen is a heavy, structured fabric traditionally used as the base for Tarz El Fassi embroidery — the hand-stitching practice developed in the medina of Fez. Each piece is worked by hand, with embroidery patterns that require sustained attention and craft knowledge passed through generations of Moroccan needlewomen.
